ISO 23145-2 is the second part of an international multi-series standard that focuses on advanced, technical, fine ceramics.
ISO 23145-2 specifies the test method to determine the untapped density of granulated or ungranulated ceramic powders by a constant-volume measuring method.
ISO 23145-2 stipulates the technical specifications such as the principle of a test, apparatus required, sampling method, test procedure, calculation, and stating the test report for checking the tap density of the ceramic powders.
ISO 23145-2 on Untapped density of ceramic powders is useful for:
The untapped density of ceramic powders can be defined as the mass of a known volume of the powder is determined after allowing it to fall freely into a stationary container, avoiding vibration. The mass of the powder divided by its volume after the test gives its untapped density.
ISO 23145-2 lays down the technicalities for carrying out a test procedure to determine the untapped density of the ceramic powders. It gives you detailed information about the apparatus needed to perform the test, explains the principle of the test, helps the users to execute the calculations as well as concludes the final test report.
The test procedure given in ISO 23145-2, helps the users to acknowledge the packing properties of the ceramic powder, which can influence the operations critical to solid dosage manufacturing, including bulk storage, powder flow, and compaction.
